Chocolate Popcorn Balls

Makes about 16 popcorn balls

Cook time: 20 minutes

You can really dress these up by drizzling in white and dark chocolate and adding holiday sprinkles.

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 cup light corn syrup

4 tablespoons butter

2 tablespoons cocoa powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

8 cups popped popcorn

In a large heavy pot combine all ingredients except the popcorn; stir to combine. Bring to a vigorous boil. Reduce heat. Slowly add the popped popcorn, stirring to coat. Cook and stir until popcorn is coated, about 2 minutes. Cool mixture slightly. Use a ¼ cup measure to shape into popcorn balls.
